S Agoston
European journal of anaesthesiology. Supplement, 9, 107-111 (1994-01-01)
A review of several publications shows that there is general agreement that inhalational anaesthetic agents potentiate the neuromuscular effects of rocuronium in the same order as other similar agents, namely; enflurane and isoflurane > halothane > intravenous anaesthetics. However, such
T Wang et al.
Anaesthesia, 69(8), 854-859 (2014-05-14)
We investigated whether laparoscopic vs open surgical approaches affected the duration of neuromuscular blockade following a single bolus dose of rocuronium. Fifty-three female patients underwent either laparoscopic or open gynaecological surgery. Rocuronium 0.6 mg.kg(-1) was administered to achieve neuromuscular blockade
J M Hunter
European journal of anaesthesiology. Supplement, 11, 39-41 (1995-09-01)
The pharmacokinetics of aminosteroid neuromuscular blocking drugs have been shown to be altered in patients with hepatic cirrhosis. A reduced clearance and prolonged elimination half-life of pancuronium and vecuronium have been demonstrated. Pharmacokinetic studies of the newest aminosteroid neuromuscular blocking

Revista espanola de anestesiologia y reanimacion, 56(10), 604-611 (2010-02-16)
The correlation between gender and the potency of certain neuromuscular blockers, including rocuronium, has been investigated. However, the methods used have been inconsistent. This study aimed to look further at the role of gender in order to arrive at definitive

Masui. The Japanese journal of anesthesiology, 55(7), 826-833 (2006-07-22)
For many years, much effort has been done to develop non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents of rapid onset and short duration. It has been shown that rocuronium bromide is a nondepolarizing, steroidal muscle relaxant with fast onset and short-to-intermediate duration of
